I use doubleknit polyester dress pants


I would have expected them to make you hot, sticky, smelly and
uncomfortable. That's how I always was at school (ages ago) when
polyester was all the rage as the marvellous drip-dry fabric that
needed no ironing.

Life was a complete misery in summertime, and no-one understood why
....until someone rediscovered pure cotton!
